The overall purpose of this checklist is for the team to ensure that the correct patient is undergoing the correct operation. Additionally, the team should assess the patient's condition and take appropriate measures, including preparations for unexpected events. The pre-anesthesia check is a so-called "do-and-verify" checklist, meaning the steps are performed and then confirmed as completed.

The following are recommended anesthesia models for elective procedures in general surgery, gynecology, urology, ENT surgery, oncology, and orthopedic procedures. Methods described here can be seen as recommendations for anesthesia techniques. Several other models are fully possible and may be just as effective as our suggestions. Local deviations and routines may occur. The proposed anesthesia model is presented in a condensed tabular format. Premedication is described using abbreviations.

In this chapter, airway management with assisted breathing, ventilation, and intubation is described in detail. Various aspects and techniques necessary to ensure and maintain an open airway are covered here.

This chapter describes how to administer anesthesia using volatile anesthetics. It covers various anesthetic gases, such as sevoflurane and desflurane, and how they are used. It also covers nitrous oxide and nitric oxide (NO).

This chapter reviews intravenous anesthesia agents, including their pharmacology, indications, dosing, and roles in induction and maintenance of anesthesia It details the methods for intravenous anesthesia using TIVA mode and TCI mode. It explains the application of RSI with TCI technique as well as TIVA protocols for day surgery with appropriate doses of intravenous drugs such as propofol and remifentanil. It also covers TIVA for pediatric anesthesia and the various drugs used for intravenous anesthesia.

This chapter reviews intravenous anesthesia agents, including their pharmacology, indications, dosing, and roles in induction and maintenance of anesthesia. It covers propofol, remifentanil, alfentanil, fentanyl, thiopental, and ketamine.

This chapter covers muscle relaxants in anesthesia, including types, mechanisms of action, dosing, monitoring, and reversal methods These agents are used to keep the patient completely still and to create the best possible conditions for surgery and ventilation.

This chapter provides graphical dosing charts for anesthesia agents, outlining recommended doses, administration routes, and adjustments for different patient groups. Here you will find dosage cards illustrating the dynamic dosing of anesthetics such as propofol, remifentanil, and alfentanil, as well as various dosage cards with graphical illustrations of anesthetic dosing during an operation.

This chapter briefly describes obstetric anesthesia, including epidural anesthesia for labor and spinal or general anesthesia for emergency cesarean section. It includes various drug combinations commonly used for labor epidurals and spinal anesthesia.

This chapter describes depth of anesthesia monitoring, with a review of BIS and Entropy, which are standardized methods to determine and monitor anesthesia depth during general anesthesia.

This chapter describes how to prevent nausea and the various medications that can be administered to counteract nausea associated with anesthesia and surgery.
